I loved this so so so much and am sad to know this was just sitting on my bookshelves for more than a year. The topics explored are pretty dark and intense, but this author does so much justice to it. She's my favourite author when it comes to accurate representations of mental health. 

The audiobook was also excellent and the narrator did such an amazing job, especially with the intense and rambley chapters.
